[He almost types Are you sure it wasn't just that he wanted to kill you, because honestly he doesn't really need to dehumanize anyone to kill them.
He almost types He was probably just trying to kill you because you were a terrorist, not because he didn't think you were a person.
But in the end he just types,]
That. Doesn't really sound like the Jack I know.
[Because honestly? Jack might be eternally up for murder, but he also passed Steven's Are You An Asshole Social Issues Test with flying colors. He wouldn't casually dehumanize someone... would he?]
I know he's capable of killing people. He told me about how he shot this Merriff guy in self defense when the guy tried to kill *him*.
But Jack's not the kind of guy to just... casually unpeople people. He's not. Like, he's obnoxious as hell and basically the future version of a Silicon Valley Asshole, I get that, but I *do* try to vet my friends a little and he's not racist, sexist, or homophobic. He's really open-minded. That just... doesn't sound like him.
Ask him why he thinks he has the right to kill off everyone on Pandora then.
Look, you know this version of Jack. One that's been stripped of all his power, his armies, his robots, his company and wealth. The Jack we faced down on Pandora had all of that and more. That's why there was a rebellion against him. That's why we stopped him. Because the people of Pandora might be mostly raiders and bandits and the like but that doesn't mean every single person on that planet deserved to die just because he wanted to wipe the slate clean and loot the planet for profit.

[Welp. That's... probably the last she'll hear from him for a while.]
